I thought it was because it was windy when i tried last, but tonight there was very little wind.
Up over about 70mph the bike starts to wiggle and judder since i've had my new tyres on, it's fking scary
It didn't do this before, was pretty smooth.
What's going on? Are they inflated to the wrong pressure I wonder? Or something else?
Thanks  ____________________ TT600 neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeowwww! |

my cbr250 used to do the same thing at speeds at 180kmh plus it never felt very happy and used to weave about
could it be simply that the bike was not designed to go that fast?
also might be something to do with tyre speed rating as well, not a clue to be honest, but always made me nervous on the cbr
you never got those speeds unless on a big motorway hill with the wind behind you though  ____________________ So in other words, he stopped you for being flagrantly in posession of a motorcycle in direct contravention of the Hippies, Darkies and People Whose Face I Don't Like The Look of (Police Powers) Act. 1976 |

Notice he didn't tell me these things until AFTER I had purchased the bike off him.
Although saying that I haven't noticed it weaving about, however I can't say I have taken it up to 180kmh since the speed limits round here are all 70mph. |

I should hope it's all back ok, but I have no idea whatsoever, as RideinTyres did it.
